ICT Core Concepts: • Structure: STL/STH, BOS, MSS, CHoCH, Displacement • Liquidity: EQH/EQL, PDH/PDL, PWH/PWL, HRLR/LRLR, Liquidity Voids • Entries: FVGs, OBs, Breaker Blocks, Mitigation, Volume Imbalance, CE • Models: PO3, MMBM, MMXM, Turtle Soup, SMT Divergence • Killzones: Asia / London / NY Open / London Close / PM (CBDR) • News: FOMC, CPI, NFP impact + news embargo logic • IPDA Logic: Daily/Weekly dealing ranges, OTE, rebalance zones
🧠 Execution Flow: • HTF Bias → Draw on Liquidity → Killzone Timing → Model Confirmation → Execution • Entry requires MSS or SMT + PD Array + Time alignment • No overtrading, no chasing, no flips without structure confirmation
